Blackcraig farm. Then up towards this farm beford diverting across a small bridge to use gate to get onto hill. Then north through some fields before taking a more direct route to Blackcraig Hill with 2 inches of snow on its northern side. Then onto Blacklorg Hill which was easy enough before returning by a route crossing the Craig Burn to join a track lower down to Craig Farm and then back to the minor road Name:Blackcraig Hill Hill number:1743 Height:700.9m / 2300ft Section:27C: The Glenkens to Annandale Area:Carsphairn Hills County/UA:East Ayrshire (UA) Class:Marilyn, Hump, Simm, Graham, Donald, Current County/UA Top (Ma,Hu,Tu,Sim,G,D,DN,CoU) Grid ref:NS 64767 06407 Summit feature:cairn Drop:236m Col:465m NX608982 Observations:trig point 50m NW at NS 64741 06451 is 0.4m lower Survey:Leica RX1250
